That is the best telephone scene in movie history. It is profoundly moving in an indescribable way. It shakes me up every time I've seen it. Neither Robert Redford or Barbra Streisand were ever better than this. I didn't even know either one of them was capable of being this good.
Thats a lovely name you`ve got Rose my mother was named rose Green Always refered to as Rosie she` been gone nearly 70 years now so it was good to see the name again.
5:55 - 6;20 my favorite moment … he is such a good actor. Basically with just body language he changes the whole scene from negative to positive. A joy to watch.
I know! I was stunned when I first saw it and it still excites me and makes me giddy everytime I see it! I do feel bad for the wall he punches though, considering he's supposed to be "relieved." 😑
@@CalipsoSarah Yeah a woman who brings a man home to her apartment( whom btw she's been obsessed with for yrs and can't believe her luck when she sees him, Drunk!! And hasn't a clue what day it even is!!) He goes to bed and she joins him.. naked and seduces him, he wakes up the nxt morning.. Clueless!! Although he has a feeling somethings not quite right. Now if the roles were reversed and a man did that to a woman? What do you think the outcome would have been?

Just finished watching this movie for the first time. When I saw this scene I was like woooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooow I did not need my love life broadcasted for the whole world to see. Seriously, every.single.frame Exactly the same as my relationship at one point in the past. Magnificent movie
She has so much in her it’s bursting but he just couldn’t handle her tenacity. It’s just tooo sad, but then isn’t that what life is. A mismatch that turn out to be the most beautiful mess. Never cried as much every time I watch this movie. 😭🌈
They really were a mismatch but many mismatch really love eachother and it turns out a mess. Love takes more then love. There needs to be a common ground
My absolute favorite movie! Every time I watch it I get a different message from it. I first saw it in 1974 when I was in high school. It has stayed in my heart ever since. I always thought he left her at the end, but I finally realized, years and years later, that she left him for cheating. I can't believe it took me so long and so many times watching it to get that.
It was not about the cheating, they were total opposites and they both knew it even though they loved one another deeply. They both knew it would eventually end because of their differences and decided to do it before the child had to witness it...
It is my favorite movie too! I can't believe I still cry like a baby when she touches his hair at the end. I'm getting better though...I used to shut it off to avoid watching and crying from that scene.
I just watched a video explaining that two scenes were cut that explained their split. Katie renewed her commitment to her political beliefs, which led to her being informed on for having communist sympathies. He was told that as long as she was his wife, he'd never work in Hollywood. She left him because she didn't want him to be blacklisted. She knew he belonged in Hollywood. She left him because she loved him. That's why they had no contact after the divorce, not even to see his daughter. They cut contact. Removing those scenes left the reasons for their split misleading and ambiguous.
She didn’t come with all the trimmings. Family ties, wealth, connections, big house blonde hair bla bla. She just loved him with all her heart and remained true to her self.
they shared no values , they didn't want the same things - those are pretty essential to adult relationships infatuation and physical attraction is all they had, and that fizzles no matter how people try to romanticize it she did not love him, she loved the idea of him and filled in the blanks, which is why it was doomed to fail
How this didn’t win her a 2nd Oscar for best actress is beyond me. The Oscar’s were just dead set on snubbing Barbra through the years. From the way we were, Yentl, prince of tides
Who else is here after reading her biography and how she wishes the director had told her to not cover her face so much and she might have won the Oscar…cause you can’t see her face.
Never chase a man or change for a man, he’ll never be a attracted to you. It will only hurt yourself in the end. It makes the other person (man or woman) want to run away. It is the law of attraction. This is why he cheated. I just read an article if you’re in a new relationship and you’re not really sure if you’re attracted, it’s dangerous because it leads to infidelity.
Rewatching this as an adult, I have to say that I find many parts a bit cringe-worthy. She really is just begging this man to stay in her life. I get it. I've known people to do it in real life. Still makes me say an internal eulogy for her pride.
That’s true. She really should have found someone who was more aligned with her own political views and the causes that she believed in. She and Hubble didn’t really have a lot going for them other than physical attraction, there were no shared values. Unlike other famous movie couples, like Jack and Rose from Titanic or Oliver and Jenny from Love Story.
@@tinawelch5524 that’s true. She was very much attracted to him, even though he had nothing in common with her politically. Then she tried to mold him to support her political views and activities, which didn’t work.
@@tinawelch5524 yes, he felt that her making everything political took all the fun out of his life. I think her political views were correct about a lot of things, such as opposing Franco in Spain, and banning the bomb. But one can be a political activist and still have fun sometimes.
It's so dispiriting to see so many comments being filtered through a tiresome self-help, pseudo-psychiatric lens. THIS IS A GREAT LOVE STORY! IT'S ABOUT MOVIE STAR CHEMISTRY; IT'S NOT A SELF-ESTEEM EXERCISE.
@@gibsongirl2100 You're welcome. I wish more people would understand that art (and entertainment) is not about self-help; it's not a therapy session. What makes "The Way We Were" a classic love story is that this is one of the rare times when the hype about the stars' romantic chemistry was actually true. That's why people are still so affected by the movie. Has there ever been a better demonstration of how opposites attract? Streisand and Redford perfectly embodied the archetypes they were playing.
Thank you love is often messy it's not predictable the fact that she could even be so vulnerable is brave people calling her a desperate pick me perhaps but she's brave
Necesito ver esta película otra vez , cuando la vi por primera vez tendría yo unos 14 años y no la entendí por completo pero eso no evito que me enamorara de ambos y de ese amor que ella le tenía , ame esa película sin entenderla y ahora de adulta creo que la entenderé mucho mejor , la necesito ver ya , desde entonces soy fan de Barbra .
I could never understand why she was so willing to humiliate herself for someone who obviously does not care that much about her and would prefer someone different.
@@margaridavelhinho1618 I think you are romanticizing and idolising toxic relationship because it involves pretty actors and are subconsciously inserting yourself into their places hoping you could one day have something like that with rich beautiful guy although you're aware in real life you probably can't so you need to keep this fantasy.
@@margaridavelhinho1618 the guy cheated on her while she was pregnant and left her the same day she gave birth and never cared about his daughter not did he have any contact with her leaving Katie to provide for the child herself while he was pursuing his spineless Hollywood career with dumb pretty women who do not think or have opinions
She always made a point of addressing her features, no matter how old she got, she never realized it was her talent and drive people found most attractive about babs!!!
I think she's beautiful and very feminine, with such a lovely voice, eyes, mannerisms. She has a ton of charisma. I love that her beauty is unconventional and unique. Beauty is a spectrum
She knew they'd eventually separate due to their differences and so did he, but they both gave it a whirl and loved one another deeply until those differences overrode their ability to conquer them..
Must watch tis movie !! Been so long since I've seen it can't remember half of it !! But these clips are brilliant 👌 Only remember that was Wile Emotional Movie and that women she was portraying def was soo Annoying but also felt sad for her ! 😢 gonna order it dvd now
Beautiful part of the film Gentle,patient, soft,and humble When the words cant be to smart When the words cant told our feelings,because we dont want hear the truth, but just the love🌹
Katie you expect so much yes but look what I've got.......What a line? And what a comeback.... wish I could say lines like that in real life. Always think of good things to say when it's too late .......
By pushing someone to 'be better' you are saying they are not enough. Thats painful. But you can see why she does it- by saying she will change, for him (not because she wants personal growth) its because she doesnt have her own self worth. She feels not good enough so she pushes everyone else to be better, be more.. it's never enough to just BE... and that why I support him ending things. Because she wasnt healthy. He wanted partnership. She wanted to be a boss of a relationship.
no, listen to him. he was with her because he knows deep in his heart that no one will ever believe in him like she does, the version of him that he wants to be but is afraid to be. it always bothered him that people just saw him as a dumb jock. she's the only one that paid attention and saw that there was something "special" about him. he just couldn't live up to that something "special." he always fell short.
@@jones2277 So you're saying he was with her because she was a flattering mirror? He respected her convictions and one of those convictions was that she had huge faith in him. But she went overboard with her convictions including her convictions about him and he didn't like that. Truthfully, she's so extra that it's annoying. She seems to have a good heart but they are not in the same ballpark regarding socioeconomic background and status. She'll never fit in either socially, ideologically, or looks-wise and she knows it but she still wants it. She comes off as a bit of a self-hating Jewish woman, tbh.
I have only watched a few scenes. It may not be accurate to give comments without seeing the whole movie. Am I right that she tried to change him? It would not work in any real-life situation.
Man or woman, please never humiliate yourself like this by begging someone to love you. It won't work, it just makes them lose even more respect for you. Cautionary tale of how NOT to act
I am in Awe as I read all these comments. They didn't "work out" for a myriad of reasons. 1) She chased him 2) She was pushy & nagged him 3) She was Jewish and he wasn't 4)They were political opposites 5) Men don't like to be "driven" by women! They like women who "support" their ambitions....I am 64 & it took me a LONG time to figure this out.😜🤣👍
In my opinion, it’s because Katie was still re-living WWII. She thought she still had to support anyone who fought against Nazis. She also had photos of Roosevelt and Churchill, who were very much capitalists. It seems nobody really challenged her about the fact that Stalin had blood 🩸 on his hands.
Maybe at that time, people living in the West did not really know much about what were behind the Iron Curtain. "The grass on the other side is always greener". So some people idealized something that was beyond their reach/understanding.
There is always a phase in every romance when the woman begs and cries and pleads for love, and then moves on in a way that looks effortless, but very few are forgiving, unless they have met someone way better.
This is the most humiliating thing to watch. I wish she had a friend who would smack her and tell,her to move on because this guy is NOT into you. In real life Hubble would have changed his name and moved far away. I can’t imagine this embarrassing desperation ever actually working to get a man back.
Yeah, its so cringey. All the begging and self-questioning. No man would be attracted to such an insecure woman with such a low-self-worth. Why would a so-called feminist settle for this?
Wow, you really didn't get this movie. He was drawn to her because her temperament was so different from his and vice versa. It was an attraction of opposites and Streisand and Redford embodied it brilliantly.
This is the first time I am exposed to this movie. After a few clips on youtube, I decided to watch it on Amazon Prime. After their fight at JJ's place and she was about to call him, I could not continue to watch. First, I thought the script was so bad that she would do the begging. Then, I calmed down and saw that the movie was really well-made. Young women (of course not all) could be like that, even with all kinds of feminism talks today. At the beginning, it was a mismatch. She was into him but not vice-versa. The first accidental date, he puked then fell asleep on her. A mismatch cannot be fixed, no matter how both sides try. The movie was quite realistic. There was no "happily ever after".
I don't get it. Katie can choose to be herself, warts and all, and she's courageous. And yet, when Hubbell wants to live for himself, a life less complicated than the one Katie offers him, he's a coward. Personally, I don't appreciate the Katie-types who always think they know what's better for you than you know yourself.
Yes, Also I can totally see that Redford was annoyed by her. This seems to be the most genuine scene in the whole movie. He was frusturated with her being controlling.
This reminds me of The Last Five Years. Like, we can understand why the man got put off for a while, but then he cheats and it's like, OK DUDE NO. Especially with this guy cheating on her while SHE WAS PREGNANT.

Man or woman, please never humiliate yourself like this by begging someone to love you. It won't work, it just makes them lose even more respect for you. Cautionary tale of how NOT to act
Pushing pushing is not LOVE Everytime I see this, she is just plain insistent on having everything her way.
Thats NOT Love, Your NOT Getting the Movie.
ter far uh I do get the movie, more NOW than 30 some years ago
Ame esta película y la tengo cada tanto la veo
What man would want a relationship this intense ..lol but what a great movie ..
This movie broke my heart.
So realistic for the times that led up to these.
I am in Awe as I read all these comments. They didn't "work out" for a myriad of reasons. 1) She chased him 2) She was pushy & nagged him 3) She was Jewish and he wasn't 4)They were political opposites 5) Men don't like to be "driven" by women! They like women who "support" their ambitions....I am 64 & it took me a LONG time to figure this out.😜🤣👍
You are boring.....he loves her.....
can we not forget him cheating on her while she's pregnant?
Yes those are all valid points but he also loved her but too many differences to make it work
Its true, she pushes too hard..and makes him pull back even farther..both of their weaknesses are made more prominent
Wonder did they like each other while making the film
This hurts so much
she does beg him and make him uncomfortable
I begged before
Literally fell to the floor grabbed the guy's leg crying,
"Please don't go"
He did.
I got alot of beautiful poetry from him.
@@debravowell8337 Must be some intense poetry. I'd love to read it.
Sleeping pills and wine??? Oh Hubble’s a bad boy!
I could not have a relationship with a woman who has a poster of Stalin on her apartment wall. Just sayin’
Why didn’t he challenge her about it then?
In my opinion, it’s because Katie was still re-living WWII. She thought she still had to support anyone who fought against Nazis. She also had photos of Roosevelt and Churchill, who were very much capitalists. It seems nobody really challenged her about the fact that Stalin had blood 🩸 on his hands.
OMG I didn't realise that Katie had a picture of Stalin. Oh no no
Maybe at that time, people living in the West did not really know much about what were behind the Iron Curtain. "The grass on the other side is always greener". So some people idealized something that was beyond their reach/understanding.
There is always a phase in every romance when the woman begs and cries and pleads for love, and then moves on in a way that looks effortless, but very few are forgiving, unless they have met someone way better.
This is the most humiliating thing to watch. I wish she had a friend who would smack her and tell,her to move on because this guy is NOT into you. In real life Hubble would have changed his name and moved far away. I can’t imagine this embarrassing desperation ever actually working to get a man back.
Yeah, its so cringey. All the begging and self-questioning. No man would be attracted to such an insecure woman with such a low-self-worth. Why would a so-called feminist settle for this?
Wow, you really didn't get this movie. He was drawn to her because her temperament was so different from his and vice versa. It was an attraction of opposites and Streisand and Redford embodied it brilliantly.
This is the first time I am exposed to this movie. After a few clips on youtube, I decided to watch it on Amazon Prime. After their fight at JJ's place and she was about to call him, I could not continue to watch. First, I thought the script was so bad that she would do the begging. Then, I calmed down and saw that the movie was really well-made. Young women (of course not all) could be like that, even with all kinds of feminism talks today. At the beginning, it was a mismatch. She was into him but not vice-versa. The first accidental date, he puked then fell asleep on her. A mismatch cannot be fixed, no matter how both sides try. The movie was quite realistic. There was no "happily ever after".
@@lepetitchat123 Low self worth comes in all stripes.
Un des plus beau film d'amour que j'ai jamais vu, un des plus triste aussi : deux personnes qui s'aiment mais ne peuvent vivre ensemble...
God he is sooooo good looking
I don't get it. Katie can choose to be herself, warts and all, and she's courageous. And yet, when Hubbell wants to live for himself, a life less complicated than the one Katie offers him, he's a coward. Personally, I don't appreciate the Katie-types who always think they know what's better for you than you know yourself.
Yes, Also I can totally see that Redford was annoyed by her. This seems to be the most genuine scene in the whole movie. He was frusturated with her being controlling.
6:16 Redford's Chewbacca moment.
🎅さんはここですか？出版ボタン押しました😅やっと終わりました🍵🌷
Bonsoir, ou pourrai je voir ce film complet. Un site a me montrer, s il vous plaît. The way we were
I have just watched it on Amazon. I could not find a free version.
Heart wrenching scene - I always wanna shake them both when I watch this. 💔
This reminds me of The Last Five Years. Like, we can understand why the man got put off for a while, but then he cheats and it's like, OK DUDE NO. Especially with this guy cheating on her while SHE WAS PREGNANT.
Forcing him to conform to her idea of life. Who made her the arbiter?
Well-acted, especially Streisand.
It the best m v good
I well cry with you were together ❤️ in this

Rewatching this as an adult, I have to say that I find many parts a bit cringe-worthy. She really is just begging this man to stay in her life. I get it. I've known people to do it in real life. Still makes me say an internal eulogy for her pride. repost PEOPLE YOUR NOT GETTING THE POINT OF THE MOVIE!! guilt trip never works. he was with her out of pity/
Oh no, the poor guy is put out... geez.
@Jessica LT, actually he acted like any GUY (not a woosy boy) who was irritated by her games
" style " has nothing to do with who a person is or their character . hubble was too concerned with his peers accepting his girl . i love this movie but i didnt like the ending . he seem to care too much about what other thought .
There is a scene earlier where she basically takes advantage of him when he’s passed out. It didn’t age well because it’s actually assault. My heart breaks for her, but her character is so cringe. Brilllant performance though.
TH-cam: Love Story/The way we were free please 😊
Yes please
Far out, she seems exhausting! And he seems just right.
Seems like a woman trying to change a man… 🤦🏻♀️
